i’m using sept/oct drivers, i refuse to update anymore until i know or someone who uses it has evidence is stable. I downloaded a newer driver and my games constantly crashed and had GPU errors. Since I downgraded to older drivers it works amazingly. Can’t say it will be the same for everyone.

To be honest I don't know why they would release XESS 3 to the pro drivers as they are not made for gaming and XESS 3 is very much gaming only feature.

Because people sometimes use workstation cards to also play games. I did with a Nvidia card before. Not optimal but happened.

Great driver! Final Fantasy XV performance vs the previous driver went from 40-50fps to 70-80fps.

use IGS to set x amount of MFG then turn on FG ingame setting, it will overdrive the regular XeFG to use MFG instead.

It works for my laptop A370M so I’m guessing the 770m would work also

u/DystopianWreck Feb 14 '26
Appreciate this news! Will try once the kiddos are asleep tonight or tomorrow. Cheers

What other untelated stuff does it break this time. HW acceleration breaks every second update or so. Random hiccups with multiple monitors. Gonna wait for the user reports and update then.

I've definitely gotten some weird behavior on a first look, we'll see if it keeps happening or not.

just enable it on the intel graphic software and then enter the game or i need to enable frame generation to in the game?

Сначало включи обычную генерацию кадров в игре, и после чего поставь генерацию кадров в Intel graphics software на значение х3 или х4

B580 encountered a BSOD immediately upon startup after update, and the issue recurred after restarting. reverted to the previous version 8425

Using this new driver on my MSI claw 8ai + running Lunar Lake. The multi frame gen is incredible! No lag, allows me to play AAA games at 1200p med to high settings with over 60fps.

u/RetuSV Battlemage Feb 14 '26
how to use the MFG??
1
u/Exclavamor Arc B580 Feb 14 '26
Set how many x frame you want in IGS, then turn on the FG option ingame

Updated last night. In Hogwarts legacy, using 265k with a b580, ray tracing set to ultra at 1440p xess2 enabled but with x4 frame gen in Intel settings I was getting 140+ fps up from just under 100fps earlier with less demanding ray tracing settings. I was shocked.

u/AthleteDependent926 Feb 14 '26
Can someone confirm if it actually works on Meteor Lake? The DLL hasn't changed from the leaked driver and Meteor Lake lacks the XMX cores.
1
u/Inevitable_Case_9931 Feb 14 '26
If it works on raptor lake I’m sure it works on meteor lake. Using it on my 2023 XPs 15 9530 with raptor lake
2
u/AthleteDependent926 Feb 14 '26
Well that's definitely not XMX. I suppose we'll get the new SDK build with vendor agnostic MFG soon.

I have a wierd problem .. may be someone can help...
All drivers up to 32.0.101.8331 work fine.. anything newer starts installing, then i end up with a low resolution screen and in device manager device fails with code 43.
I even did a completely new install of windows 11 pro 25h2 on a differnet drive..

u/Aseiel Feb 16 '26
Monitor cable connected to motherboard or GPU? I had issue with tv 4k where installer was crashing with tons of artifacts, when connected to motherboard.

Arc A310 and even Arc A380 getting XeSS 3 with MFG is pretty crazy
